— And about your other problem, how did it start? (Rafaela Ferreira)
— I don’t know very well. I only know that was happening. (Osmar)
— I understand you. The sin is like an animal watching us daily waiting for the slightest slip. If we are not in complete communion with the father, we fall in temptation and sin. Osmar, would like me to touch? Thus, I could know you better. (the son of God)
— Touch me? How does it work? (Osmar)
— He is the seer and through the touch he can see our past, present and future, feeling our innermost anxieties. It like a baptism— Explained Rafaela Ferreira.
— Oh, very well. At ease, friend. (Osmar)
Aldivan gets up going near his dear friend. At that magic time, he had a feeling that something important was about to happen by rubbing his skin on his partner’s skin. When he reaches enough distance, stretches his arm and touches tiny belly. Then the story is revealed:
“Osmar is the chief of the municipality of Sanharó financial section. As chief, he is responsible, strict and authoritarian, these last characteristics being well-marked. From a spectacular beginning of command of the town sector, he begins to fall in contradiction and corruption. Fraudulent proposals to the law started to emerge, he began to accept the bribes. At every slip of his, darkness was consolidating and expanding inside his being.
On a beautiful morning in February 2007, seventh day to be precise, he receives new sworn in prefecture employees in his office. One of them is called Aldivan, an aspiring writer whose greatest objective was conquering the world. From the time they met, a mutual friendship develops.
The days pass by, between work, social activities and leisure. At work, as an understanding chief, at work breaks allows the writing of Aldivan’s first book. How special was that lad, despite all his humbleness still believed in a better world, what was not his case. He remained amid corruption and allowed his inner demons to act in the occasions he had relations with minors. They were different and at the same time equal as human beings.
Two months later, they got separated, because Aldivan could not reconcile work, distance and studies at the university. It was indeed a pity, for who knows, with the convivence he may have changed, having someone so valuable by his side. However, it was so written.
The time passed, the crimes continued being committed, and was investigated and uncovered. Besides having lost his post at the prefecture, was incarcerated for some time. After being freed, returned home and began living from his savings. As he was quite old and having amassed a good deal of money, decided not to look for work and began his solitaire life, with a few friends and his employees. Until, on a beautiful day occurred the reencounter with Aldivan and his friends, promising a change in life and the father’s pardon. He accepted an invitation to take part on a journey hoping to reap the results at the end.”
The seer takes the hand away and with a complacent look starts talking:
— We are here to help you, Osmar. We don’t promise immediate success and happiness for that is utopia, but a great dedication to your causes. Here, we are brothers, friends and accomplices. Be at ease!
— Thank you, master. From now on, I will be your most committed apostle. Towards success, brothers! (Osmar)
— Amen! (Renato)
— Welcome to the team! (Rafaela Ferreira)
— Your pains are our pains too! (Bernadete Sousa)
— Count on me, human! (Uriel)
— Let Yahweh father bless this pact! (Rafael)
— Maktub! Let’s travel for time presses. (Concluded Aldivan)
The others obey and head to their respective rooms to pack. Once everything is ready, they meet again and go out to the streets. From the centre where they were to the bus station were fifteen minutes on foot, being covered without incidents. They wait a while until the bus arrives and then they board it.
They depart towards the town of Belo Jardim about 14.7 km (fourteen kilometres and seven hundred metres) away in a straight line. However, by road it was almost thirty kilometres, being covered in approximately thirty minutes.
